us, usa, usa! >> it is absolutely essential that together we lead america to a better place than that. we are four days away from a fresh start. four days away from the first day of a new beginning. my conviction that better days are ahead is not based on promised and hollow rhetoric but on proven results and an unshakable faith in the american spirit. if there is anyone worried that the last four years are the best we can do. if anyone fears is american dream is fading, if there is anyone who wonders whether better jobs and better pay checks are a thing of the past, i have a clear message, with the right leadership, america is coming roaring back. [applause] we are americans, we can do anything. the only thing that stands between us and some of the best years we've ever known is a lack of leadership and that's why we have elections. this tuesday is a moment to look into the future and imagine what we can do. put the past four years behind us and start building a new future. you saw the differences

the answers to these questions are on us. all of us. all of our hard work and progress that we have made it all at stake. the traces in this race are clear. -- choices in this race are clear. as my husband said, this election will be closer than the last one. it will come down to what happens in a few battleground states like right here in virginia. as you start gearing up for the next four days, but me put some things in perspective. how close these elections are. in 2008, barack 1 va is by about 235,000 votes. when you break that down across an entire state, that is 100 votes per precinct. in north carolina, the margin of difference was closer. it was five votes per precinct. think about that. that could mean just one vote in a neighborhood. a single vote in an apartment building on your college campus. if there is anyone here, anyone you know who may be thinking that their vote does not matter, that their involvement does not count and in this political process that ordinary folks cannot make a difference, they can. think about those
